The super-cool videos documenting some Moab obstacles graciously prepared by Fubar?

I think we need to start another thread and ask Modzilla for a sticky.  |

CP, Thank you for this.
I thought about making another or a new thread for my video posts.
But then thought who am I? Just go with the flow and place your stuff where the others have.
Thanks for the bump.
I am happy to hear that folks are enjoying them and that my efforts have not alienated me with what has become my extended family. Bazar as it might be |

Great job Fubar. I just finished them and think maybe I need to go back and view all of them again. Thanks for sharing and thanks CP for pointing them out.

You've gotta edit out that one line. Here you guys are, CAREFULLY guiding the H2's through the rocks, and along comes CP in her Jeep. One of the spotters proclaims, "Aw, this isn't even an obstacle for a Jeep." And through she goes. Now, I know what you meant - and the others on this board know what you meant...but the Jeepers are gonna have a field day with that one!

BTW - AWESOME vids! Thanks! |

I think he said "This isn't even an obstacle for 'Ceep'" as in CP. 
I was just worried I was going to scratch something. It was a rental and this was a trail specifically mentioned as prohibited for the rentals. The guy thoroughly inspected every little thing before we took it out. Looking at the video, I could have gunned it. |

I know! Very cool video and nice job, CP! I put over 100,000 miles a Heep CJ about 20 years ago - and they ARE light, nimble little things. LITTLE being the key word there. Easy to squeeze through tight spots - but NOT easy to squeeze any creature comforts into. They have their place. And compared to a Hummer, that place is about 30 fathoms lower than whale sh1t.

CP did a great job the whole trip and the squeeze was no obstacle for her or the heep. No obstacle because it fit between all of the rocks. Which for the rental company was probably a good thing. At no time did she feel the excitement of being up on two wheels or having her face inches away from a rock wall listening to a spotter tell her to "Turn" into that wall and that it will feel strange but trust said spotter What's life without a little excitement. I talked myself out of doing that obstacle on my first trip to Moab and wasn't about to let it happen again. Great fun even though at some point during that obstacle I remember thinking I wish my truck was a bit narrower..
Thanks to all of you for the kind words. I am very pleased that you all have enjoyed the videos. THANKS.

The spotter did a crappy job for her.

Yeah, I drove the H2 for a good part of Hell's in the beginning of the week and then drove the Jeep a good majority of it and they are very different. I had mentioned it earlier when we first got back.
The Jeep was fun, like a little toy. I could choose my lines and really didn't have to worry about any tight spots. But it was pretty uncomfortable compared to the H2 and I felt uneasy at angles because of the weight.
